Answer:

15.167%

Explanation:

For computing the WACC we need to do the following calculations which are shown below:

Cost of equity = Risk free rate + Beta × Market risk premium  

= 3% + 2 × 9%

= 21%  

After tax cost of debt = Cost of debt ×  (1-Tax Rate)

= 5% × (1 - 0.30)

= 3.50%

Now

WACC = Weight of debt ×  Cost of debt + Weight of equity × Cost of equity

= 5 ÷ 15 × 3.50 + 10 ÷ 15 × 21

= 1.167% + 14%

= 15.167%

You have been investing $165 a month for the last 12 years. today, your investment account is worth $60,508.29. what is your ave
Tanzania [10]
Given:
Future value, F=60508.29
Monthly payment, A = 165
Compounding period = month
Number of periods, n = 12*12=144
interest per period = i   [ to be found ]

We have the relationship
F=A((1+i)^n-1)/i
but there is no explicit formula for i for given F, A and n.
We need to solve a non-linear equation for the value of i, the monthly interest rate.
One of the ways is to solve it by fixed iteration, i.e. 
1. using the given relation, express i in terms of other parameters.
2. select an initial value of i
3. evaluate i according the equation in step 1 until the value is stable.

Here we will use the relationship to express
i=((60508.29*i)/165+1)^(1/144)-1  [ notice that i is on both sides of = sign ]
using an initial value of i=0.01 (about 1% per month).
Successively, we get
i=((60508.29*0.01)/165+1)^(1/144)-1=0.01075571
i=((60508.29*0.01075571)/165+1)^(1/144)-1=0.011160681, similarly
i=0.0113685
i=0.0114728
i=0.0115246
i=0.0115502
i=0.0115628
i=0.0115690
i=0.0115720
Assuming the above has stablilized, and the APR is 12 time the above value, namely
Annual percentage rate = 0.01157205998210142*12=0.13886=13.89%

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

Beckman noncontrolling interest in subsidiary income $10,520

Calvin Machine (net of accumulated depreciation) $71,200

Explanation:

To calculate noncontrolling interest in subsidiary's income;

Revenue    $65,550

Expenses   $39,250 (29,250 + $6,800 + $3,200)

Net Income $26,300

Noncontrolling percentage = 40%

NonControlling Income = $10,520

Depreciation of Machine = \frac{Fair value of Machine - Book value}{estimated useful life}

\frac{78,000 - 10,000}{10 years} = 6,800 per annum

Amortization of trade secrets = \frac{Fair Value Total - Machine value}{Useful life}

Amortization of trade secrets = \frac{90,800 - 78,000}{4 years}

= 3,200
